This ride takes you from the lively tech hub of Hsinchu, famous for its delicious rice noodles and high-tech industries, all the way to laid-back Miaoli, a region known for its charming Hakka culture and beautiful countryside. It’s about a 47 km journey—not too intense, but with a gentle ascent of around 235 meters, you’ll definitely get those legs moving.
Most of your route rolls along quiet roads and cycleways, so you can enjoy the scenery without too much traffic stress. The paths are pretty chill, winding through rural fields and small towns, giving you a front-row seat to some classic Taiwanese landscapes. The surface is a bit of a mixed bag, so be ready for some unpaved stretches.
As you arrive in Miaoli, why not treat yourself to some traditional Hakka snacks or a walk through one of their peaceful old streets? This route is perfect for anyone looking for a ride that’s just challenging enough, with plenty of local flavor along the way!
